AI Scientists Collaborate in Virtual Laboratory Using LLMs
By
–
“Researchers have created a virtual laboratory staffed by ‘AI scientists’ — LLMs with defined scientific roles — that collaborate to achieve goals set by people. The team trained one LLM to be the work’s principal investigator (PI) and a second to act as a ‘scientific critic’.

AI Vocal Imitation Model Outperforms Human-Generated Samples in Study
By
–
After building this model, the team conducted a behavioral experiment to see whether the AI- or human-generated vocal imitations were perceived as better by human judges. Participants favored the AI model 25% of the time in general, & as much as 75% for an imitation of a

AI Model Struggles With Consonants in Speech Synthesis
By
–
The team still has work to do w/the current iteration of their model: it struggles w/some consonants, like "z," which led to inaccurate impressions of sounds like bees buzzing. They also can’t yet replicate how humans imitate speech, music, or sounds that are imitated

AI Model Learns Human Vocal Imitation Through Iterative Development
By
–
The team developed three increasingly nuanced versions of the model to compare to human vocal imitations. First, they created a baseline model that simply aimed to generate imitations that were as similar to real-world sounds as possible — but this model didn’t match human

Communicative Models: How AI Understands Distinctive Sound Features
By
–
Their second "communicative" model considers what’s distinctive about a sound to a listener. For instance, you’d likely imitate the sound of a motorboat by mimicking the rumble of its engine, since that’s its most distinctive auditory feature. As a final layer of reasoning, they
